Generator (Assembly)

Summary

Generators are one of the most essential parts of any constructs that need generated power. Most spaceships for example need to have a properly assembled generator in order for the ships to function.

Use

• Every machine on ships that are powered by a generator must be connected to the generator with a cable.
• A generator is constructed from several modules that must be assembled in a certain way, with all the modules bolted to each other.
• Generators should be placed at a secure location, away from any hazards such as radiation or gunfire.

Typically the generator consists of at least one generator chamber, one cooling board with cooling cells, one fuel chamber with a fuel rod, and one socket board.

Basic information

Modules can be combined to build a generator for different needs and purposes, with varying shapes, sizes and efficiency.

A generator can be built from the following modules:

• The fuel rod (This is the container for the the raw fuel that the fuel chamber will process to create energy)
• The fuel chamber (The fuel rod is placed inside the fuel chamber. The raw fuel is then processed into processed fuel in the fuel chamber)
• The generator unit (Within the generator unit processed fuel is processed into power)
• The cooling board (Cooling cells are placed here and coolant is processed to reduce heat)
• The socket board (For attaching cables)
• Enhancers (For improving efficiency, in three different tiers)

A generator creates its own resource network within which it distributes and processes five different resources:

• Raw Fuel - Stored in the fuel rod.
• Processed Fuel - Processed in the fuel chamber from Raw Fuel.
• Power - Processed in the generator unit from Processed Fuel.
• Heat - Produced from the two latter processes, the processing of raw fuel and the processing of power.
• Coolant - Stored in the cooling cells. Processed in the cooling board to reduce Heat.
